The island of Funchal is known for its stunning scenery, lush landscapes, and the birthplace of footballer Cristiano Ronaldo. It also is known for being the home to one of Europe’s most challenging airports: Madeira Airport (LPMA). Developer Atelic has now released the airport via Orbx.
Madeira Airport is known for its highly challenging approach and landing due to various obstacles and weather components as pilots approach the runway. The cliff edges generate turbulent conditions, whilst the approach itself has you making sharp turns right up until the last moment.
Included with the new airport product is a fully up-to-date rendition of the airport, including accurate runway sloping, custom-placed buildings around the airport and the Lead-in lighting system used to guide pilots to the runway. There is also the sports complex under the runway bridge structure, custom vegetation and more.
You can buy your copy from OrbxDirect for $33.48 (excluding taxes). A free update for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 is also planned, according to Atelic.
